Rakib has just passed the secondary and has been admitted to the higher secondary. The location of his college is a long way from home. So he decided to stay in a college hostel for the convenience of staying. Rakib, the only child of the parents, has not lacked care and attention since childhood. He never spended anywhere without his parents for more then two days. He has always been in the place of his own comfort. So, the hostel life was waiting for him as a challenge to adapt to the new environment.
One day Rakib and his father go and fix a room in the hostel for him. He will stay in the "Zulfiqar Ali" dormitory located very close to the college. The atmosphere of the hostel was very nice and pleasant. Tin walls and paved floor with a huge pond in front of it. It was surrounded by a variety of vegetation and a huge playground next to it. There is no more beautiful hostel in a rural environment as like village areas. Shimul is very impressed by the environment of the hostel.
Rakib started preparing to go to the hostel. His parents started arranging things for him. Also Rakib began to prepare mentally. On the one hand, there is joy in him and on the other hand, there is the fear of leaving the family. Will he be able to adapt himself? A very challenging time is waiting for him.
A few days later he got up in the hostel. His dad goes with all his necessities. Today is the first day of his hostel life. He arranges his bed, table and other necessities. A total of four people including him in his room. One is his classmate and the other two are college elder brothers. The brothers also helped him in his work. An introductory session and refreshments have been arranged for the new students in the hostel.
He was feeling very nervous, all-unfamiliar people, unfamiliar place. He participates in the introductory episode with everyone at night. In this way a few days passes. Now he has some friends & his roommate Rakib supports him in all matters along with his elder brothers. It's like a new family now. He enjoyed eating together, bathing in the pool and playing sports in the afternoon.
Now when he goes home, he is worried about when he will return to the hostel. He has come out of his comfort zone and adapted well to everything. Now he just wants to enjoy every day of hostel life.
